Well in the spirit of a challenge group I'm participating in. I was challenged to create a Layout using a photo you have been wanting to scrap, but haven't gotten around to it, using distressing ink on the page and use paper or pack you have had sitting there. I don't know about anyone else, but I am a Fall/Halloween/Paper pack horder...I have entirely too many paper stacks, thus in doing this challenge I am forcing myself to use my stash! I am now starting to get Halloween 2011 done so...fingers crossed hopefully its done before Halloween 2012 rolls around! Thanks for looking!

Using some scraps and leftover

American Crafts Chipboard letters

I was able to Cut "Look" and "Ten"

using my Silhouette and "Who's" from my lefter over letters.

The flags were also make cheaply from scraps using a Silhouette cut and toothpicks!

Hi Everyone, we finally just finished our regular season of baseball/softball...now we're into playoffs...However, to thank the Coaches (my husband Manager also), I found this easy, inexpensive idea online to create these great gifts! I always give credit where credit is due, so here is the source of my inspiration: http://justpleasedaspunch.blogspot.com/2010_06_01_archive.html

Our Team for Little League was the Orioles, thus our colors were Black and Orange. Here are the actual gift items:

STEP 1: PUCHASED THESE GLASS MUGS AT DOLLAR TREE (YES ONLY $1 EACH)

STEP 2: USED VINYL AND SILHOUETTE CAMEO TO CUT NAMES AND BASEBALL

STEP 3: USED ARMOUR ETCH ($7 WITH TAX AFTER COUPON AT MICHAELS) TO SPONGE ON THE ETCHING...VERY SIMPLE LET IT SIT ON GLASS FOR ABOUT 15 MIN. AND RINSE WITH WARM WATER AND POOF, ALL ETCHED!! EXAMPLE OF SEVERAL BELOW.

TO FINALIZE THE GIFT I SIMPLY PRINTED A 5 X 7 PORTRAIT OF THEIR SON AT COSTCO AND PLACED INTO FRAMES I PURCHASED AT MICHAEL'S (5 FRAMES IN PACK FOR $12 AFTER TAX AND COUPON) AND WRAPPED FRAMES WITH ORANGE WRAPPING ($0.59 AT PARTY CITY FOR ROLL). THEN COMPLETED WITH CLEAR WRAP (PURCHASED 2 ROLLS AT DOLLAR TREE). SIMPLE, INEXPENSIVE AND A GIFT THEY CAN KEEP FOREVER!

For the Sponsors I ordered plaques (not photographed here) and made these cards to give them from the boys (example shown was completely signed by the team and Coaches yet, but you get the idea :). No machined USED, simple, easy and adorable!!
